Rune was originally released for Windows in 2000 and its expansion pack, Rune: Halls of Valhalla was released for Windows in 2001. Loki Software ported the base game and the and the expansion pack into Linux in 2001. Due to abrupt closure of Loki Software in 2001, Linux version of Rune: Halls of Valhalla expansion pack is almost impossible to find digitally and physically. I upload the disk images of the Linux version of base game, expansion pack and also the installation for the sake of preservation.
Installation:
- Mount the [Linux] Rune.iso and install the game in default installation location /usr/local/games/rune (this is necessary due to HoV installation script checks here); sudo linux32 ./setup.sh
- Extract the .tar, mount Rune-HOV.toc via gCDEmu, then install the expansion; sudo linux32 ./setup.sh
- Copy game directory to your Home dir and fix the permissions of installation directory: chmod 755 -R /
- Download and apply native HoN patch
